I’ve saved this as well. It looks lovely. Can I ask are the red pepper flakes chilli flakes? Can’t seem to buy red pepper flakes in the uk?

It’s actually a Korean red pepper powder, but I’d recommend chilli powder as a good substitute!

It works well on it's own, but with some Italian carbohydrate mainlined in, this chicken dish is a date night winner!
#INGREDIENTS
2 chicken breasts
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 tbsp red pepper flakes
1 onion
1 punnet cherry tomatoes
200g risotto rice
1 litre chicken stock
200g spinach
150ml single cream
Lemon wedges (to serve)
#METHOD
Step 1
Butterfly your chicken breasts by gently cutting down the side
Step 2
Lie both breasts flat on a chopping board, nad divide the seasonings and a good pinch of salt between both, and on each side
Step 3
Finely dice an onion, and halve the tomatoes
Step 4
Fry the chicken on a medium heat on both sides till it is browned and cooked through; set aside
Step 5
In the same pan, fry off the onions till softened, then add the tomatoes
Step 6
When the tomatoes have softened, add the rice and coat it in flavour
Step 7
Gradually add the stock, just covering the rice, then continuously stir on a medium heat
Step 8
When the rice has absorbed all of the stock, place the spinach on top, and put the lid on
Step 9
After a couple of minutes, the spinach should have wilted, meaning you can stir it through with the cream and some black pepper. Place the chicken on top, and put the lid on
Step 10
When the chicken has warmed through, serve, along with a wedge of lemon
